Responsibilities
- Enhance ISP performance for road and cabin-facing cameras using field data, prioritizing image stability and sharpness in dynamic, high-vibration settings.
- Develop automation scripts to detect defects and adjust ISP settings for correction.
- Engage directly with customers to support best-in-class product development.
- Partner with cross-functional teams including Product Management, Electrical Engineering, Product Design, Firmware, Engineering Program Management, New Product Introduction, and Hardware leadership to make informed technical decisions.
- Mentor and share knowledge with fellow engineering team members.
- Coordinate with internal teams and external partners such as JDMs, certification labs, and consultants.
- Support the Lead Architect in tuning core ISP components like Auto Exposure, Noise Reduction, Sharpening, and Color Mapping for RGB and RGBIR sensors.
- Refine Auto-Exposure weighting and shutter speed logic to reduce motion blur and rolling shutter artifacts during vehicle movement.
- Tune Electronic Image Stabilization and gyro integration to ensure smooth video and consistent frames across varying road conditions.
- Create Python and MATLAB scripts to derive objective image quality metrics such as MTF, SNR, and Dynamic Range from large-scale drive data.
- Design and maintain internal tools to track and visualize changes in ISP parameters across tuning iterations.
- Include stabilization performance and motion vector analysis in visualization tools to document tuning outcomes.
- Maintain and manage the version-controlled image quality database across firmware releases.
- Ensure that improvements in driver monitoring systems do not negatively impact stabilization or license plate readability at high speeds.
- Automate the generation of image quality assessment reports.
- Incorporate 'Vibration Robustness' scoring into performance summaries for architectural review.
- Oversee JDM partners in the design, validation, certification, and production of high-quality imaging systems.
- Promote company cultural values including customer focus, long-term thinking, growth mindset, inclusivity, and teamwork during global expansion.
